Wonder If Anyone Has Ever Seen Any of These Posts

Most likely not, I haven't done anything to try to drive traffic.  If I was intersed in purusuing affiliate marketing then PotPieGirl's, Travis Sago's, Marcus Campbell, and whatzisnames Google Sniper are all interesting and would have good advice.  In the meantime, I really need to get off my ass and get some kind fo a job.  The alternative wouldn't be good.  i wouldn't be for shit hustling up my own employment.

Targeting Keywords for Traffic and Search Engine Optimization

How are you supposed to get anyone to read your articles if they don't show up in the search rankings in the first place?  You need to do a bit of keyword research, and tweak your content to fit particular keywords so when someone does a search under a particular phrase your site/blog/content will show up in the search engine results.  You need to target keywords, or optimize keywords, or SEO -- however you want to put it -- if you want anyone to find what you're writing in the first place.  So you could say that's why no one seems to read these posts on my blog -- nothing is optimized to target any particular keywords.  No one is going to find this post unless they where looking for the topics targeting, keywords, traffic, and search engine optimization.  Next post maybe I should try some keywords in the title and early in the post -- that's supposed to be good for SEO.
Until later...

Okay kiddies, I've done a little SEO by adding labels to this post -- a few keywords for the search engines to pick up on.  Doubt it will attract much traffic but lets see what happens.  I should find out what this page business is about.  Looks like when I preview my posts all I see is the post I just completed.  Oh, I think you start a new page when you start a new blog on a topic -- that's probably how it works.

The Blathering Dimwit Holds Court

Hola!
I going to expound on stuff I know less about than you because I can and this is my blog, so there.  I was going to jabber about What You Need to Know and What You Need to Do to be successful at affiliate marketing because I think that's where these people who think they can teach this stuff to other people fall down.  They assume you know what they think you know because they are so familiar with their own experience.  They probably don't have the experience like I have (rather, the lack of experience) because they are more adept at social marketing like Twitter, Facebook, etc (although I think YouTube is very cool) and probably have blogged and put other crap online because culturally they are more inclined to do that.  Me, I am rather old school - I like ebay and YouTube but I have not been terribly adventurous online and haven't really warmed to a lot of the new stuff out there.  So that is where I'm coming from.

Wow, I Can Add a Page, Part 2

You must think I'm a real idiot.  Well, I am.  I kind of chicken-hearted about this affiliate marketing thing so I'm farting a round with this stuff getting my courage up.  So think I'm a fool, you are right.

Soviet History and Economics/ Why I Like Soviet History

Okay kiddies, here we go.  Now we have a keyworded title/topic to expound on.  I'm going to prattle here a bit on why I find this stuff so enjoyable.  I've liked the Soviet style for a long time -- the compelling graphic art of their propaganda posters and advertisements.  I enjoy the style of Socialist Realism.  Some might consider it crap art, not real art, since it was the State trying to promote its ideas through visual media, so that would kind of broaden the idea of what you'd call art.  I dunno, I still like the look.  And then we can talk about Soviet economics and history.  I find that very interesting because they were a major political power and did their thing very differently from ours, so it had to have worked and worked well on some level.  The reason why I never found it compelling to learn Spanish is because Mexico and Spain are not real economic or any other kind of powers.  They don't have a lot of influence.  On the other hand I want to learn Russian because I find the Soviet idea compelling.  You could argue that communism is a failed social and economic experiment but while it was going it was a major force to be reckoned with.  You can argue against why someone should find the Soviet era compelling, but I'd argue that it isn't every lifetime the largest empire on Earth collapses.  That has to be the biggest thing that has happened in anyone's lifetime who was born in 1991 or before, I just don't think that many people have thought to appreciate that fact.  It's probably because they went down without a lot of violent lashing out, like the people who could have done anything about it knew it was a weak system and there was no point in getting violent trying to keep a dying system alive.  I didn't vote for Ronald Reagan but I think he must have gotten some kind of sadistic enjoyment tormenting the Soviet empire.  He took a lot of stands without anyone supporting him because he knew the Soviet system was inherently and fundamentally weak, and he could take those positions because he knew the commies couldn't do much to challenge him (Star Wars, etc.).  He may have come off as a bit naive and moonbeamish but he knew he didn't need to worry about that because the Soviet system was too weak to really challenge his positions.

Doesn't look like anyone's been here

Not surprising, absolutely nothing is keyword optimized

Dum Dum Tries Internet Marketing

Jittery chickenshit marketer that I am, way too nervous.  Don't know if I need SiteSell to hold my hand and tell me what to do.  maybe that is a better idea -- work on your content, develop work habits, and have something you have put an investment of time into so you want to see it make money.  Don't know what's involved with estimated taxes and incorporating in Delaware.  Itwould be nice to jsust sit down and play at this the way one imagines.  Maybe that's why SiteSell put the steps in the order they do.
